Carnivore Connoisseur: Navigating Japanese Omakase with Ease

Embarking on a Japanese omakase experience while following a carnivore diet (strictly animal-based foods: meat, fish, eggs) poses unique challenges. Traditional omakase menus often feature rice, soy-marinated dishes, and vegetable garnishes that don't align with carnivore principles. This is where mm food transforms your dining journey.

The Omakase Obstacle Course for Carnivores

Omakase, meaning "I leave it up to you," puts the chef in control of your multi-course meal. While seafood and meats take center stage, common pitfalls include:

• Rice-based servings (nigiri sushi)
• Soy sauce (typically contains wheat)
• Miso or teriyaki glazes
• Pickled vegetables and seaweed garnishes
• Tempura-battered items

Without clarity, carnivore dieters risk accidental carb consumption or awkward ingredient interrogations mid-meal.

mm food: Your Omakase Copilot

Step 1: Set Your Dietary Profile

Before dining, activate mm food’s carnivore preset. Our AI dynamically excludes plant-derived ingredients, sugar, and grains. Add custom restrictions like "no soy sauce" for precision.

Step 2: Real-Time Menu Decoding

Point your camera at the Japanese menu. mm food instantly translates it to your language while cross-referencing every dish against your carnivore parameters. See at a glance:

• 🟢 Safe dishes: Sashimi platters, grilled unmarinated fish, beef tataki (no dressing)
• 🟡 Modifiable options: Ask for nigiri without rice ("Neta only"), salt instead of soy sauce
• 🔴 Non-compliant items: Miso soup, tamago (sweet egg custard), mushroom dishes
